"My sister and I have always been close since young kids. She is the
thoughtful one, always getting me lovely things - however this time I
got it right! I recorded a beautiful poem for her and reminisced some
of our favourite times growing up! Once stories4life created this audio
file, with music and effects, I felt really emotional. My sister loved
it more than any gift she had ever been given, and felt full of positive
emotions too."

"I loved recording my Aunty a poem and messages for her, it was really,
really good fun. I kept laughing and made so many mistakes, but I did
have help with my reading too. I couldn't believe how good I sounded
when stories4life had finished making it. I also have a copy so I can
listen to what my aunty listens too."

"As I had been working away more and more, it started to bring my mood
down. I started missing my girlfriend and home more than ever. I told my
girlfriend how I was feeling, then to my surprise she gave me the most
treasured gift. She recorded a poem for me and left me lovely messages,
also as an added bonus I had messages from my mother and brother. This
gift literally lifted my spirits whilst away. I play it whenever I start
missing home. The best thing is , I can hear my loved ones just at the
touch of a button."
